The little sister is a troublemaker

After Zhang left, Li Mulan lay beside the bathtub in a daze.

At this time, Qingyu came in, "What are you daydreaming about? The water should be cold by now."

Li Mulan shrank back into the tub and said with a smile, "No, my mother came just now."

He paused and said, "Did you see your injuries?"

Li Mulan nodded somewhat depressed.

"It must be sad."

Li Mulan sighed, "That's right."

She whispered and chuckled, "It must be nice to have a mother who cares about you, right?"

Li Mulan smiled bitterly, "Sweet burden?"

Qingyu tapped her and put a white porcelain bottle aside, "This was sent by Uncle Chu Jie's guard, and this." Qingyu took out a short blade from her arms, which was the one that Li Mulan lost.

Li Mulan was delighted when she saw the short blade and reached out her hand. "Hey? Uncle Chu actually found it? That's great, I thought it was really lost. I'm used to using this thing, and it was given to me by my fifth senior brother. If it was really lost, he would have complained about it."

Qingyu handed the short blade to her and said, "I saw the porcelain bottle. It's the ointment made by the master of the Divine Doctor Valley himself."

Li Mulan raised her eyebrows, "Oh? Sister, do you mean that this Uncle Chu knows Old Phoenix?"

Qingyu shook her head. "Not necessarily. After all, many of the things made by the Valley Master himself have flowed into the market. It's just... hehe, they are priceless."

"Wow, you are really rich." Suddenly, her eyes lit up. "Next time, when I go to the Divine Doctor Valley, I must bring back more. No matter what, I can get a little bit. Anyway, with the reputation of the Divine Doctor Valley, I will be able to sell it for a lot of money."

"Why? Are you short of money again?"

Li Mulan was a little helpless. "Of course I am short of money. Last time Uncle Zhang came, he took away a lot of money. Hey, I am almost broke."

Speaking of Zhang Yi, she asked softly, "What did you ask Uncle Zhang to do? He didn't come with us either."

"I asked Uncle Zhang to help me get some information. We will probably stay in Longhu City for a few more days. He should be able to catch up soon." He yawned ungracefully.

Looking at the little boy whose eyes were almost glued to his chest, he whispered softly, "Okay, stop soaking. Get up and I'll apply some medicine on you. Then you can rest. You haven't rested well in this period of time."

Li Mulan said sleepily, "I am indeed sleepy, sister, please don't wake me up tomorrow. I want to fall into a deep sleep and no one should disturb me."

Qingyu said lovingly, "Okay~"

On the other side of the inn, Chu Chenfeng had also washed up. His clothes were loosely draped over his body, revealing his eight-pack abs. At this moment, he was not wearing a human skin mask. His angular face was like a work of art carefully carved by God. Every angle and every line looked so flawless, which made people feel excited.

"Master." Xing Yi came in and saw his master like this. He lowered his head and didn't dare to look at him any more.

"Yeah." Chu Chen didn't even raise his head, just lay on the couch with his eyes closed to rest.

"The things were delivered, but Miss Li was not there. It was Miss Whispering who was with her."

"Ah."

"In fact, considering Miss Li's relationship with the Divine Doctor Valley, the medicine she has must be good. The master doesn't need to worry so much."

Chu Chenfeng's body froze, how could he have forgotten about this? He wanted to send the best medicine over, but in the end... He stroked his forehead gently, he was really a little crazy, his mind was not clear, it seemed that he really should focus on his own things, he was just an interesting person...

He then slowly opened his eyes, his eyes immediately becoming clear, "Have you found out?"

Xingyi immediately took out a secret letter from his arms and handed it over, "I found it, but..." He looked a little confused.

Chu Chenfeng frowned and glanced at Xing Yi, who was standing opposite him, and immediately felt a chill on his back. He hurriedly said, "I am a little confused. All the news is true. The one who cooperated with the Killer Alliance is Zhang Zheng. But Zhang Zheng is related to Master Li's family by marriage. How could it be..."

Chu Chenfeng chuckled and threw the letter aside without even looking at it. "What's so strange about this? Zhang Zheng has already defected to Xu Tian. Xu Tian has always been at odds with old man Li Cong. This has been going on for a long time..."

Suddenly, a dangerous light flashed in Chu Chenfeng's eyes, causing Xing Yi to tremble.

"master?"

"What can you find out about my brother's death?"

Xing Yi paused and frowned, "No, all clues show that the late crown prince did hang himself."

"Check whether Xu Tian had any contact with anyone from the Prince's Mansion during that period."

Xingyi's eyes widened in disbelief. This Xu Tian was the Crown Princess's family. How could this be possible? But the master must have noticed something when he ordered this. "Yes."

"Don't let Xiaojie know about this."

"Yes, my subordinates know."

Chu Chenfeng closed his eyes again and continued to rest, "Go out if you're fine."

"Yes." Just as he retreated to the door, Xing Yi turned back and said, "Master, there is one more thing."

"explain."

"Well... you have not been in Kyoto for a while, and there are many... ahem, court officials advising you to get married."

Chu Chenfeng opened his dangerous eyes, his eyes were full of impatience, "I have already abdicated, are these people too idle? Do you still want to interfere?"

"Well... they probably thought that one day you would... change your mind?"

"Find them something to do, so that they don't keep their minds on me."

"Yes, and the young master sent a letter asking when we will return."

Chu Chenfeng's expression did not change and he did not speak.

Xing Yi understood, if he didn't say anything, he didn't need to reply, poor little master. He looked at the man on the recliner and slowly left the room.

Chu Jie, who was far away in Kyoto, rested his chin on his hand, staring out the window in a daze.

Gu Changqing, who was standing by, was a little disappointed, "Your Majesty."

Chu Jie didn't respond.

Gu Changqing was depressed, and his voice became louder, "Your Majesty?"

Chu Jie turned his head in confusion and looked at Gu Changqing, "Uncle Gu, you call me Zhen?"

Gu Changqing was helpless, "Did you hear what I just said to you?"

"Ah? What? ...Oh, the imperial examination, just go ahead and do it like you did in previous years."

Gu Changqing hung his head. "The regent said that this is your first imperial examination since you took office. You must do it well without any mistakes."

Chu Jie was still somewhat uninterested, "Uncle Gu, did the Emperor's uncle say when he would be back?"

"Aren't you on your way back?"

Chu Jie's eyes lit up, and he got down from his seat and ran to Gu Changqing, "Back? When? What about Sister Lan and Brother Yuanruo? Did they come back together?" Then he became a little angry, "I sent many letters to the emperor's uncle, but he didn't reply to me. It's too much. He's obviously back, why didn't he even reply to a letter?"

Gu Changqing touched his nose and said, "I guess he's busy and doesn't have time?"

Chu Jie's eyes widened, "Then how can I have time to reply to your letter?"

"Um... or... maybe... didn't you see the emperor's letter? Did you lose the letter?"

Chu Jie looked at Gu Changqing with a sinister look in his eyes, "I write one letter every day, and I have written seventeen letters so far."

Gu Changqing:...just pretend I didn't say anything...
